Any guesses on his line tonight? I'll say:

1.2 IP 11 H 10 ER 2 BB 0 K
Gosh I hope not. Really think Bronson has value as a mentor to the youngsters but if this start goes like the last one it may be time to don his coaching hat and step away from his playing days. Like you I think he gets hammered.

He just can't consistently get major league hitters out. If he wants to get into coaching, I'm all for that.

FYI Adleman went 7 IP 5 H 2 ER 1 BB 6 k In his first start in Louisville. I know he's a AAAA/spot starter type but I'd love for him to be the guy eating innings until Disco comes back. At least he can handle a workload for a couple months and get 15-18 outs. Our bullpen is going to be dead by July at the rate we're going.

Reed will probably take Rookie Davis spot in rotation. I also think Arroyo is operating on a short leash. Lot will depend on how Reed performs in the rotation.

Reed
Finnegan
Arroyo
Garrett
Feldman

If Stephenson can build on his 2 innings last night he may be given the next opportunity until Romano clears super two status.

By June I envision quite a competition for the starting rotation.

Reed
Stephenson
Bailey
Disco
Garrett
Romano
Feldman
Finnegan
Davis

Feldman needs to stay in the rotation no matter what so we can hopefully move him at the deadline. Maybe get an underachieving prospect or guy coming off of Tommy John or something. I think Romano and Stephenson are the odd men out for now.

Arroyo can't get through a major league order twice. Forget 3 times. Can't have it. Call up Adleman.

He has no business pitching in the majors. Has zero ability to get any strikeouts...makes it REALLY tough. Honestly, his 9.90 ERA and 1.60 WHIP feel like it's as good as he can do. The announcers and newspaper writers in Cincinnati make me want to puke. They are so phony about this whole thing. And if they aren't being phony and are really on board with Arroyo, that's even worse.

Luis Castillo (W, 1-0) 7.0 3 1 1 0 6 1 1.38 throw in Castillo. Pitched another gem tonight. This team has young arms !
